When I was a teenager the Dead Kennedys were one of my favourite bands, in part because I loved the sound in the music, but also because they spoke to me as a disenchanted youth.
Today I can't stand listening to them because of the lyrics, and I personally think Jello Biafra is a left wing loonie, wish I had a dad growing up to stear me clear of that garbage.

It's funny how some of the stuff you like when you're young is in reality terrible. I use to love extreme metal. It was my favorite genre hands down as a teenager. I recently listened to some of it and said to myself, "Why did I like this? It's just an endless series of rolling the bass drum." Maybe that's the cynic in me. Lol. I'm getting off topic. Were the Dead Kennedys for you a band that inspired you at all as well?
